Parents usually hire caregivers so that they can work themselves, so when the child care provider can't work, it can leave parents in a predicament. The most common outcome is that someone has to remain at home with the kids, often to the detriment of work. But, with advance planning, a Plan B can often be put into place effectively. While another teacher can be brought in easily at a daycare, in-home providers can also arrange for a back-up caregiver for times when they are sick or unable to work. Parents should also make plans for when their own tot is sick and can't attend daycare.

These early years are a “window of opportunity” when the brain makes the connections necessary for learning.
